Charr as when I was in character creation and I just couldn't find anything that looked good with them. I originally didn't like the look of the asura, I thought they looked creepy but after I saw the video of one rolling on the floor with laughter I changed my mind

Norn got my vote. Their size makes them feel slow and clunky compared to 'normal' sized Charr or Humans tho. Not sure what they can do about it...but being a rather large guy myself I take a much longer stride (and generally walk faster) than people 6-8" shorter than me.

hahaha...I thought the Sylvari looked like the Jolly Green Giant at a LGBT parade:***(not that there's anything wrong with that...I've just spent too much time in West Hollywood)

Charr. When I first saw them I was like... what the hell is that? I wouldn't mind it if it was just ugly. It's just... really weird. AND ugly. And running on all fours... bleh, reminds of the yiff-iest furries.

From a lore perspective, I'm struggling to understand how the Charr actually fit in as a playable race when one considers everything they've done in the past and what they're still doing. I've never really been a fan of warring races putting aside their differences to battle a supposedly greater threat, which was one of the lore points that put me off WoW's lore.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for depth and tension...I just think the Charr are more than a little forced as a playable race.

The humans pushed the Charr out of their lands first, as I've mentioned like 10x in this thread. If you don't understand Charr as a playable race lore wise, you shouldn't understand humans either.. since they technically started it.

I would really like to play a Norn but the lore doesn’t really fit well with a Necromancer. I may end up playing a human Necro as my main and perhaps a Norn warrior or hunter as a secondary character. More to point, Asura's kinda creep me out a little so i won't be playing one.
